Well I don't know about Jason but U talked Me into a Colt S.A. Back in the 80s I wanted one really bad but They were just too high ( $600 ) and up. So I'm in the Old West gun shop in Redding and they have this Dakota SA in 30 M1 for a price that I could afford. I think I payed about $150 for It. Anyhow I always refered to It as My poor Mans Colt. It is a good shooter ( but boy is is Loud ). So with all the talk about Colts , Rugers , Harleys and Rolex I am now on a Quest for a Colt SA. Doesn't have to be anything fancy but not wore out. I know there r some Scheisters out there so buyer beware.

Wish Me Luck,I am a patient man when it comes to wants. Like somebody said "the right place at the right time"
I am including a couple pics of My Poor mans Colt.

Perry,

I just learned something. Other than Ruger, I never knew anyone made a revolver in 30 M1. Do you know who actually made it? Looks just like the typical Uberti, but all the Italian copies are pretty close.

It is made by Jaeger- imported by E.M.F. Ca.
I have a 30 M1 carbine that was customized back in th 60s. I will have to get them together for a photo shoot. They r dedicated to My twin Grandsons on My departure. couldn't think of more fitting guns to give Them.

Paco writes about his 30 M1, single action in his book. Yeah, he says it is loud.

Perry,
You bet those 30 carbines are loud! In an OM Ruger I have in that caliber , I just shoot the 115 grain Lyman gas check bullet designed for the 32-20 with a mild dose of Unique for about a 1000 fps.

BTW, I really like that single action on your computer screen.

Yep, I'd have said Jager. They have a distinctive look about them.
